836 Landfill Compactor

Do More with Less

The Cat® 836 Landfill Compactor is designed with heavy-duty main structures that support multiple life cycles, features a Cat C18 engine, single-lever steering, pressurized cab, and wheel/tip options that help provide extended service life. Available Cat Compact Technologies further enhance compaction performance and consistency by providing accurate compaction values and 3D mapping.

Cat Landfill Compactors are designed with durability built in, ensuring maximum availability through multiple life cycles. With optimized performance and simplified serviceability, our machines allow you to operate more efficiently and safely. Introduced in 1993, the 836 has been an industry leader for over 30 years. Focused on helping our customers succeed, we have continued to build upon each new series. The 836 continues our legacy of reliability, performance, safety, operator comfort, serviceability, and efficiency.

  • Note: Cat U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, Korea Stage V and Japan 2014 diesel engines are required to use ULSD (ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel with 15 ppm of sulfur or less) and are compatible* with ULSD blended with the following lower-carbon intensity fuels** up to: • 20% biodiesel FAME (fatty acid methyl ester)*** • 100% renewable diesel, HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil) and GTL (gas-to-liquid) fuels • Cat engines meeting Brazil MAR-1 emissions standards, equivalent to U.S. EPA Tier 3 and EU Stage IIIA, are compatible with diesel fuel blended with the following lower-carbon intensity fuels** up to: • 100% biodiesel FAME (fatty acid methyl ester)*** • 100% renewable diesel, HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil) and GTL (gas-to-liquid) fuels Refer to guidelines for successful application. Please consult your Cat dealer or “Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations” (SEBU6250) for details. * While Caterpillar engines are compatible with these alternative fuels, some regions may not allow their use. ** Tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions from lower-carbon intensity fuels are essentially the same as traditional fuels. *** Engines with no aftertreatment devices can use higher blends, up to 100% biodiesel (for use of blends higher than 20% biodiesel, consult your Cat dealer).
